About The Artwork

This piece of work is titled Reflections due to the gold card used as the base for this work which reflects a blurred image of the viewer. The black lines and colour choice are inspired by Ghana, African wildlife and culture. The black lines are a reminder of Zebras but more so of tribal markings. Tribal markings are used in some parts of Ghana where a section of the face is cut to give distinctive markings relating to tribe of origin. These lines emulate these cuts. The colour gold is also related to Ghana's history of its resources of gold and the Asantethene (ruler of the Ashanti people) decked out in gold jewellery, accessories and beautiful Kente cloth. While the viewer can also stamp their own interpretation on to the piece if they are at the right level of the piece they should also be able to see a blurred image of themselves viewing the piece. Reflections is one of my favourite heritage inspired pieces.

Born and raised in London with a cultural mix of Ghanaian and Indian parentage Sarah grew up in the Bohemian area of Notting Hill often visiting Portobello Road Market for clothes and fruit and vegetables. She has always enjoyed art and fashion and will spend hours in galleries. Sarah finds creating her pieces peaceful and is always looking out for inspiration in shapes, images and colours. Previously having ran a stall in Portobello Road Market selling women's accessories and once working in the field of health and social care specifically with Learning Disabilities and Mental Health. These experiences have helped shape the work she completes and her view of the world. Making art accessible and enjoyable for everyone is of the utmost importance to Sarah as an Artist. Her work seeks to be bold and enjoy the use of colour. All works are carried out by hand, every shape and line is cut individually. There is perfection in imperfection. Sarah enjoys travelling and has gained the most inspiration for her work in Cuba, Ghana and India. Sarah has been part of The Holy Art Gallery's "Future Stars" exhibition, "Art on Loop - Milan" exhibition and their online "Unusual" exhibition. She also contributed to the online exhibition "Man" with the Barbagelata Contemporary Art Foundation. Sarah took part in Art Number 23 Gallery's "Open Art" exhibition in Barcelona, Spain. She exhibited with Untitled Gallery in London from 30th November 2023 to 9th January 2024 at the O2 Centre in London. She also has exhibited with Cylinder Gallery at their "Pulse" exhibition in Somerset House in November 2023. In December 2023 she exhibited at the Art Maze ExhibitHere exhibition held at Bargehouse, OXO Tower Wharf. She exhibited with Artspace Innovations in New York in March 2024. She will participate in The Holy Art's virtual exhibition from 22nd April to 22nd May 2024. Sarah will next be in the Untitled Artists Fair in July 2024 in Chelsea. Exciting news!
